A hurried figure appeared in the main hall of the mosque.

The young face, with a straight military uniform, looks very extraordinary, and the pistol hanging from the waist and the neat magazine set off the heroic spirit very well.

The sound of footsteps echoed softly in the main hall, and the chiefs and elders inside quickly focused their eyes on the young man.

Everyone who came knew each of them, the captain and company commander of the guard unit of the Fifth Garrison Division of the garrison, a very young man.

"Respected tribal leaders, I'm sorry that your request has been denied once again." The lieutenant came to everyone's side, and after watching everyone come around, he said helplessly.

"Then have you made it clear to your commander that we really want to be able to do something for this poor country, otherwise it hurts our hearts to sit here all day and watch young soldiers bleed on the battlefield! They are so good, all of them are the future of Somalia......" A gray-haired old man, on crutches, with the concessions of everyone, came to the captain, his eyes moistened, and his voice choked.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Chief, but our military knows your determination very well and is very touched by your spirit. However, war is really not child's play, and it is also our sacred mission to protect everyone's safety and rights and interests. Therefore, while expressing our gratitude for everyone's request, the headquarters also hopes that everyone will understand. The captain said sincerely.

"But our army is too small, only a hundred thousand people, how can it be enough, some of our people are young and strong, they have all touched guns. I've also been on the battlefield, and I will definitely not hold you back. ”

"Yes, there are a lot of warriors in our clan, they have hunted all kinds of fierce beasts, and their marksmanship is also very exquisite, no worse than ordinary soldiers."

"If it doesn't work to go to the front, then we can also form reinforcements, and we can go to the battlefield at any time if needed."

"Yes, the number of people is the strength of the force. The white man is not yet one shoulder and two heads. The bullet used to pass through a hole, and we are not afraid. ”

……

"Guys, please let me explain." In the face of all kinds of persuasion voices around him, the captain was not only moved in his heart. It's more of a helplessness. Seeing the people who were angry and angry. He could only move Li Lan out: "It's not that we reject everyone's kindness, this matter is a decision made by His Excellency the President himself, and fighting a war is a matter for professional soldiers." If everyone has the heart to do something for this country. Then please restrain the people well, this is the greatest help to us. ”

The captain watched everyone's reactions as he spoke, and sure enough, after moving out of Li Lan, the expressions of these people suddenly improved a lot, "However, everyone's minds, Your Excellency the President also understands that in order to live up to everyone, Your Excellency the President has made a decision at the high-level meeting in Somalia just now, and in the next month, the garrison will be reorganized into five brand-new division-level units, and the number of recruits will reach 60,000 this time." At that time, the Supreme Command of the garrison will issue a conscription notice, and each tribe will have a different conscription ratio according to its size. So, every clan will have a chance. ”

After hearing the captain's words, everyone's faces began to show joy, but combined with the captain's words just now, someone soon asked: "Then these newly recruited soldiers, will they go to the battlefield?" ”

In response to this question, the captain shook his head very dryly and said, "No, these newly recruited soldiers will go through a long period of rigorous training before they are qualified to fight. ”

As if he was worried that these people in front of him would not understand, the captain further explained: "In fact, just like us, after at least two years of military training, we are initially qualified to carry out combat missions, but that is also preliminary, it does not mean that as soon as the war comes, we will go to the front. As far as our garrison is concerned, it is not yet possible to compare with the regular army, and the general command of the three services has given a criterion, only in the three simulated confrontations, at least two victories, or a tie with the regular army troops, so that they are qualified to become front-line troops. You can also enjoy the most advanced weapons and equipment. ”

As soon as everyone heard the captain's explanation, they all understood that emotional conscription was not for the war in front of them, but for the purpose of training more troops.

But will Somalia win the war at hand? Will there be a future for Somalia?

Just when everyone's hearts couldn't help but continue to flood with all kinds of worries, a very excited voice suddenly sounded on the TV, and its content instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"All the audience compatriots in front of the TV, just now, this station received a great news from the military, and this news happened half an hour ago." The host of the TV station, who seemed to be a little overexcited, was trying to control his emotions, and after taking a few deep breaths, he continued: "Half an hour ago, we made the Somali naval fleet great, and under the leadership of Vice Admiral Suleiman, the commander of the fleet, completely defeated the coalition Indian Ocean Combined Fleet. This is a great victory and a great opportunity.

Because in this naval battle, the super aircraft carrier Lincoln, which is part of the coalition combined fleet, caught fire for some reason, causing the aircraft carrier to lose its combat effectiveness. ”

In the photo, through the dense air defense net, the Lincoln was caught in flames on the straight-through deck, perhaps because the fighter jets were too fast and the shooting distance was very far, and the photo was a little blurry, but it did not affect the effect of everyone's viewing.

After the TV screen showed this photo, more than a dozen photos were shown in succession, all of which were of the burning Lincoln.

And the host's voice did not stop, "I don't know if this is providence, or if there are other factors, the military is very frank and pointed out that they did not attack the Lincoln, and this station has no more evidence to indicate the cause of the Lincoln fire." Speaking of this, the host's tone instantly increased a lot, and his tone was greatly strengthened: "However, another super aircraft carrier of the United States, the last of the Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, the supercarrier Bush, which costs as much as $6.2 billion, is a sea giant carrying the name of former US President Bush, and now it has completely become a pile of scrap metal. The most exciting thing is that this aircraft carrier was destroyed by our army. ”

More than a dozen pictures, coupled with the host's excited tone, suddenly became the focus of everyone, and all those who were watching the Somali TV program were also instantly stunned.

"When I saw the news, I couldn't believe my eyes and thought it was just a hallucination, but I can tell you now that it's true. It was a great victory, and the Somali Navy, an army that had only been established for a few months, had inflicted huge losses on the vast ocean of America, an invincible giant at sea...... This is a historic moment, and one of the most memorable in Somalia. We are proud of our army and proud of their achievements, this is the Somali Navy, a force that we could never have dreamed of......"

After some excited praise and insight, the host did not forget the content to be reported in the future, facing the machine, her waist straightened up, and her tone was more vibrant, with the switching photos, she began to tell the details of this victory.

"Our army's long-range missile unit is the most important contributor to the victory in this naval battle, and a certain ballistic missile brigade of our missile unit, taking advantage of the whirlwind attack, quietly moved to the east of Bossaso and quickly entered the launch position; after everything was ready, in an instant, a full 60 medium-range ballistic missiles rose into the air, completed their re-entry in the atmosphere of 500 kilometers, and a full 60 missile warheads neatly pounced on the Bush, which was dispatching fighters. And as a result, as you have heard before, four missiles hit the Bush, making this big guy with a displacement of 100,000 tons completely a pile of scrap iron......"

……

Inside the mosque, the hosts, including the captain, who watched the TV screen chatter, maintained an eerie silence, and as the report came to an end, the loud cheers that had accumulated in the silence made it seem as if the oval-shaped roof of the entire mosque was about to be lifted.

With tears in his eyes, his mouth full of excited words, hugging his compatriots around him tightly, laughing arrogantly, and tears of excitement dotted his excited heart.

At this moment, their mood cannot be fully expressed in words, and the word pride is a little bland and cannot explain the mood of every Somali at the moment.

Li Lan underestimated the reaction of the Somalis, although he also expected that the news would have a huge uplifting effect on the Somalis. However, after all, Li Lan could not really feel the feeling in the hearts of Somali people. Such news is not only exciting, but also a very good national awakening.

In the past, Somalia was like China a hundred years ago, suffering from foreign humiliation and oppression, coupled with the ambitions of warlords, and they fell against each other, resulting in the misery of the people. It can be said that the spiritual world of every Somali civilian is full of misery. Coupled with the harsh nature, the problem of eating is even more tormenting to their physical and mental will. Combined, the Somalis face the kind of oppression in life, and people with average ability to bear it cannot live at all.

A very unexpected regime appeared and began to relieve their life problems, so that they no longer had to bear the pressure of death, so they sincerely thanked and loved Li Lan. However, the emptiness of the spiritual world has prevented many Somalis from completely freeing themselves from the shadows of the past.

This victory was an opportunity, and from this moment on, Somalis truly understood Li Lan's contribution to the country and the nation. The empty spiritual world was completely filled, and something called self-confidence took root in their minds. (To be continued......)
